ActionScript 3.0 :: Comparing Two Arrays For Matching Numbers
Nov 30, 2009
I have this code that's meant to compare two arrays for matching numbers. Depending on how many matches there are, a certain message will be displayed in a dynamic text field. But for some reason it's not working, can anyone figure out why?
ActionScript Code:
var _num:Number = 0;
function compare_Arrays() {
for(var i = 0; i < numbersChosen.length; i++) {
for (var k = 0; k < randomArray.length; k++) {
if (numbersChosen[i] == randomArray[k]) {
[Code] .....

how to compare two arrays for matching numbers? One array is called randomNumberArray and hold 7 numbers in it, and the other myArray_array which hold 6 numbers in it.
Once they have compared how do I then display messages depending on how many numbers have matched. so lets say less then 3 numbers are matches I'd want it to display on the interface 'Sorry you have not matched at least 3 numbers'.

my code.
ActionScript Code:
var _num:Number = 0;
function chek_Arrays()
{
[code]....
Its intention is to compare the two arrays for matching numbers and depending on how many matches there are display a message.
But even though no error messages come up in the compiler error section, no messages displays on the stage where it should be.
In case it helps array 'numersChosen' is from another piece of script in this application, would I need to reference it?
Ok can anyone give me a hand ?

I'm trying to figure out the best way to compare a single bitmap against perhaps an array of saved bitmaps to see how close of a match it may be to any one of the bitmaps stored in the array. Right now I'm running a for loop that uses the bitmapData.compare() method to try to compare to see how much of a variance there is but... to be honest I'm at a loss as to how to use the resulting data to do so. Does anyone know of any good method to accomplish what I am trying to do? Forget looking at my code it's a waste of time because simply, it's not working.

I've searched everywhere and can't seem to find a clear explanation or basic example. How do you compare the elements of 2 arrays to see if there is a match?

The scenario is to create a lotto game that matches 6 user inputted numbers with 7 randomly generated numbers. The 7th number is a special case (eg bonus ball) WOULD LIKE TO SHOW A KIND HEARTED FALSH GENIUS ALL OF THE SCRIPT IF POSS! (its not tooo long) This code works, but it just outputs the default message: There seems to be a problem with my arrays not comparing? Part of the code is: (prioir to this the user inputs numbers, they are copied to text areas beginning with O, on a button press) On a second button press randomly generated number appear to a timer. //compareResult checks how many numbers match between the two sets of numbers to determine winnings.

I'd like to know how to compare one array to another array with objects.
For example:
Array1 = [one, blue, car];
// there will always be only one entry in this array - no Array1[1], no Array1[2], etc.
Array2 = [product.number, product.color, product.type, product.cost, product.qty];
The actual content in Array2 would be something like this:
Array2[0] = [three, green, boat, 100, 5];
Array2[1] = [two, blue, truck, 200, 3];
Array2[2] = [one, red, car, 50, 20];
...and so on, up to about 60.
I'm trying to figure out to go through all of Array2 to determine if there's a match to Array1. Since none of the entries in Array2 are the same, there will always be one match.In this instance, I want to match array1 with product.number, product.color, and product.type. My example has them as the first 3 criteria, though that may not always be the case.
Something along the lines of this:
Code:
function findMatch () {
for(i = 0; i < Array2.length; i++) {
if(all 3 Array1 items equals items in Array2[i]) {
[code]...
Background: I've a combobox search that allows a user to select from drop-downs. After a user selects items from all 3 drop-downs, they click a submit button, and there's a check to see if the criteria in the drop-downs matches anything in the Array2 (which it should, if you can select it, then it's in the array).
After that, the matched information is used to populate a movieclip. There's actually about 20 pieces of information associated with each product. However, I only need to match 3 of them.I've searched and found comparisons for arrays. But I don't see how they'd apply to my issue as I'm using objects and there are more items in array2 than in array1. Of course, they may apply, and I'm just not understanding how. I could create a 3rd array and move only the items needed for a match from the array2 to it. Then I could do a straight comparison between array1 and array3.

I want to compare my two arrays.When both has the same object. they will trace out the name i give.This is the code;
var cap_array:Array = new Array(Sugar,Sugar,Milk,Cocoa);
function ingredients(evt:TimerEvent):void { var ing_mc:MovieClip = null; timer++;[code]......
There is no error in the code; but it can't trace out "cappuccino". Is it I should take the ingredients in order like in the array of the cap_array?

if i have 2 arrays let us say:
array1 = ["a", "d","f","j","g","s","o"];
array2 = ["a","b","n","f","k"];
Let us say i need to check the availability of each item in array2 into array1 and i want to delete it from array1. so if "a" is in array1 and array2, i wanna know that and i wanna delete it from array1.

I have a movie clip called "colors" that contains five clips (squares of different colors). I want to see only one of those colored clips at a time and I want them to be chosen at random (which i've accomplished). I would also like to make sure the same clips isn't selected again until all the other clips have been selected. On frame 1, I set up each main clip as a class:
function clipsClass(){}
clipsClass.prototype = new MovieClip;
clipsClass.prototype.onLoad = function(){
pickClips(this);
}
Object.registerClass("colors", clipsClass);

I have two arrays of objects. Each object has a unique name property besides few others. One of the array is a local copy and the other one is sent from server after regular intervals. The local copy of arrays is then used to add a movieclips into a container.Now, I want that when I receive an array from the server, I compare it with the one which is already with me locally such that the items which were not in the received array but were there in the local array, get removed from the container and the newly added ones only get added. The items which were present in both local and remote array remain as it is.

I am trying to write a short AS3 script in CS4 that allows me to step backwards and forwards through an animation. I have a stop button a play button, rewind button and a forward button. The buttons work ok apart from when I hit the rewind button sometimes it jumps to the start of the timeline rather than just step back a frame at a time. When I use the stop button and the timeline stops where it is, the rewind button steps back as required.
But, if the rewind button is clicked first it jumps to the start of the timeline, I know the theory as to why I cant get this to work. I need to know how to increment an integer variable (counter) to increment as the animation players. i.e. the counter variable to match the frame number. Below is the code I have, how to match an integer variable to the current frame and tell me where to insert the line of code on the listing.
var counter = 1;
gotoAndStop(counter);
function setupevents(){
buttonplay.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playbutton);
buttonstop.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopbutton);

So basically I am making a round robin function, for someone, basically a round robin, matches every player with every player, im having alot of trouble with this, its quite difficult heres an example of the site i've been copying off (his matches are preset though)

My current code generates about 10 "undefineds" each launch I do My code gets the input entered (which is the amount of players) It generates how many players based on that input my graph I have is 10 columns long, and 19 rows down I need to match player
1, vs 2 - 20,
2 vs 3 - 20,

I'm trying to do a simple word counter that counts only unique words. So every new word in the inputWordArray gets added to a wordBankArray, but words that have been used previously would be ignored. I've got something that feels really close to be done but I think I need some kind of switch or break somewhere to keep it from adding on to the end of the array.
Here's my code and the output so far.
PHP Code:
var inputWordArray:Array=["word1","word2","word3", "word1"];
var wordBankArray:Array=["word1"];
var matches:Boolean = false
for (var i:Number = 0; i < inputWordArray.length; i++) {
trace("In inputWordArray loop with "+inputWordArray[i]);
for (var j:Number = 0; j < wordBankArray.length; j++) {
[Code] .....
//What I'm expecting: "Final wordBankArray: word1,word2,word3"

I have the following set up: 6 text input areas when button 1 is pressed these numbers are copied to 6 text areas these 6 (user input) with text areas appear and when button 2 is pressed a further 7 (result) text areas that appear to a timer and contain randomly generated numbers to string I need to compare these two groups of text areas in a way that treats the 7th text area as a special excluded case:

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this problem. I have 2 unsorted arrays that need to be compared, array2 must contain all elements of array1 and array2 can any number of extra elements without affecting the result. I don't see any benefits from sorting the arrays and comparing the string values as array2 can have extra information causing noise.

I have some script which grabs stuff from an xml file. The stuff grabbed from the xml is in a loop to create an automatic menu. This is all fine and dandy. Say there are 9 items in the xml file, I get 9 menu items with their unique id's.What I want to do is define an array for comparison against the info taken from the xml file. Say in the xml file I have nodes set up for Apple, Pear, Banana and Orange. With my current script I would get a menu with these items on it. What I need to do is be able to specify the items I want to appear on the menu. For this example I would want Apple and Banana only.
I have experimented with if statements, and it takes too much code to accomplish what I want I am sure there is a more compact way. My idea is to set an array with the items I want in it,then when the information is taken from the xml file,I need the script to do the function of creating menu items only with the items I have specified in the array. Below I have added the code, which has been modified from Kirupa's own squirrel finder tutorial.I need the code to be as reusable as possible, ie only the array would need to change.In my code the variable featureType would contain the information I need to compare against.
Code:
//set limits on the features that need to display
// define array
var featureLimits:Array = ["Apple", "Banana"];[code].....

In the beginning of the code I have this code to hide the bombs(movieclips). I have all my movieclips visible on the scen in the game, I'm not using addChild.
for (var i:Number = 0; i < 10; i++){
sBomb_[i].visible = false;
}
Before I used Arrays I had ten instances on the scen with different numbers, but how will I do know to get the instances into the variables and into the game?

how to do this and not found much, so here goes:
I want to generate a variable number of random numbers less than 16 with no duplicate numbers
Ive posted the fla, and what i'm doing is generating a random number and putting it into an array then using a for loop to cycle through the array for each new random number to check if its already there. if it is, then i want to regenerate that number.
if you test the fla you'll see that all i get in my array is some lovely zero's and i sort of know why this is, but don't know how to stop it.

But it is not able to convert correctly as the the var res now has the value 100000000000000000. I know that the number has 52 bits of memory, then why is it not able to do the conversion?

I am running into some trouble adding an array into another array to create a multi-dimensional array.The code appears as below:
var slideDataArray:Array = new Array();
var slideShowDataArray:Array = new Array();
slideDataArray[0] = xmlData.SlideShowParameters.SlideShowImagesDirectory;[code]........
I am looking for a means of placing the slideDataArray into a 'slot' or value of slideShowDataArray so that I can in the end pass the slideShowDataArray as a parameter to another function.As of now, the last slideDataArray appears 11 times (the loop runs 11 times) in slideShowDataArray and the way the code is written the slideDataArray is unique every iteration of the loop.

create a function that picks out X amount of numbers from a set of numbers? So if X=3, then i need this function to pick out 3 different numbers from say a set of numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) and then stored it into X number of variables.
In saying that, X will only =2, and =5. So in the first instance, i'll need 2 random numbers from the set above that are not the same numbers, and second instance 5 random numbers from the set above (also no repeats of numbers). Then i need to be able to store those 2 or 5 different random numbers from the set into variables to call them with other functions.

I've got a bit that loads a big chunk of xml data about products.I push product info into an array(e.g. productArray), then add that array to another array (e.g. allProductsArray)How do I sort those arrays? For instance, if I want to sort the allProductsArray based on the info in productArray[0]?Alternatively, would something other tha an array of arrays be a better route?This loader loads the same sort of info for many different clients, so the bit to sort on will change.
